Influenza 1b on i s last ltgs in Dillon and the country generaly, we hope, even as are the Huns in Europe. The writer does not recall either from memory or from history a s > wi lespread, deadly, and devitalizing epidemic in this country of ours as has been this scourge of influenza. In twenty four states it secured a widespread foothold. In several of our lir_ gest cities there were no t enough c?f_ fine fr?r rtio rloorl ??>?* ?*? >iuu >?I iuv ucau, iiiuiiv weir the resting places of five or six dead bodies each, and in some instances the dead were covered by aid of steam shovels. During several days the fatalities in our army camps were gre.it er than among those fighting in the trenches. Reports of the greater malignity and death toll in other states, sections and cities should suggest to the people of Dillon and community an attitude of thankfulness that we escaped with so light a toll even as we mourn the passing of so many our own ? children, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, husbands, wives, use ful business men and citizens, those whom the community would sorely miss even in normal times and now much the more when so many capable men and women have been taken across the seas to stay the ravages if the Huns. Such plagues are the natural by products of war. which in bringing nto close proximity all class* s and onditions or people brings also to ret her : 11 tl.o lave developed to prey upon (lie arious organs of the human organsin. Fioiii such natural causes, it icenis to the writer, such epidemics ome rather than that they aie a irovidential \ isitatiou. Hm out of Mfh crises Providence ilts humanity upon higher planes of luman kindness. There comes the treater realization of the great fact ?f social and human solidarity, a W opened sensitivity to Hie spirit of iiiman brotherhood, of the gr^ut so ial necessity for cooperation, these he finest truits and the truest measire of civilization. It is the purpose of the writer in his article to call attention to this ompensative by-product of our very ostly epidemic, costly in the toll of ivos, not to mention other aspects of ost. I am sure that all feel the piritual uplift of it; several have nade mention of just this feeling. To lie who could look at the battle fhich the people of Dillon have made o stop the ravages of the plague and o give relief to those who wore in ts grip. I am sure it has seemed splendid example of community ynipaihy, cooperation and efficiency. Since ihere is not at hand the inormatioii as to all individuals who ave given theinselvcs without stint r limit to the cause it will be atllipted here to eniimornlo n.U.. s and organizations.

And with none the lesss disregard of self the first two prclessional nurses went the complete rounds of town and community, day and night, giving relief-as far as p s sible. When we make special mention of these first, it is in no sense a failure to vppreciate the valuable services of these who came later. Also for the splendid services of physicians sent by the government will b' remembered in a highly appreciative way by the people of Dillon. One of the finest things in connection with the battle against the epidemic was the volunteer enlistment of men and women, especially a number of young ladies, for services in nursing and general relief, which meant severe drain upon vitality and exposure to the disease. Another splendid service which multiplied th.? aids of professional and amateur nur_ ses, the distribution of nourishment, and the efficiency of the drug stores was the work of the high school boys and others day and night as chauffers. Some of these had themselves just recovered from the epidemic and in rendering this service ran a g-eat risk in exposure of themselves. And equ il asknowledgment should be given to the many kinds of services given by high school girls in mask making, distribution of food, and many other services. Another most important service was given by the women, individually and in semi-organized capacity, in preparing just the kind of nourishment, one of the most important aids to weathering the flu. which patUn.s needed and could not otherwise under existing circumstances have secured, for any patient in the community whose need was known. Also many individuals should be thanked for the contribution of raw material for this nourishment. The valuable services of the l>u--i ness men of the town, individually and in organized capacity should re reive grateful acknowledgment, their efforts to meet every demand made upon tliein for supplies, their willingness to submit to strict quara????????????? i What Determi Live-Stoc Some stock men st Company?and other as little lor live-stock ?

Too much praise cannot be given to the efficient relief work and care of the hospital evolved to meet the needs of the occasion, to (1) the men and women who conceived the idea and put it into immediate execution, (2) to the owners of the building who gave it for this service, (3) to the many individual contributions in the way of equipment and other j things for the comfort and cheer of the patients, (4) especially the most efficient management or the lady in , charge and her helpers. As a recipient of this splendid hospital service it is difficult for the writer to stop with mere i assing acknowledgment. . > The great work of the Red Cross organization which, in keeping with the history of this great organization for the relief of human suffering, was prompt t?? get into efficient working capacity to systematize relief work, has been a concrete example to many who did not know of the humanitarian meaning of Red Cross work. It is good for us all that we could have this exemplification under own eyes. Certainly the people of Dillon and community have a deep sense of appreciation of the work of this organization in this crisis. Especial mention should be made of the efficient, untiring, and unselfish work of those delegated by the organization to systematize the work by operating a kind of bureau of information and dispatch. Tlie recognition of the value of this work was shown in the habit soon formed of calling upon that agency for any and all kinds of services and aids. Perhaps there were other services rendered in the battle which may | not he included in this enumeration. I If so. even though the public may i now know them, the recipients of the aids will not forget them, and there is the satisfaction which conies from one's having done to some degr. e at least his bit of human kindness.
